Tamper Evident Packaging for the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain

Protect your brand and your customers with tamper-evident labels, tapes, and seals designed for vitamins, probiotics, gummies, powders, and softgels.

Pharmaceutical companies face unique challenges when it comes to packaging integrity, security, and regulatory compliance. At TamperTech, we manufacture unique tamper evident packaging solutions that help pharma brands reduce risk, meet global compliance standards, and maintain patient trust.

Whether your supply chain spans one country or fifty, the risk of product interference, diversion, or mishandling is real. TamperTech offers purpose built solutions tailored for regulated, high stakes environments, ensuring your packaging works for you, not against you.

Why pharma needs more than just a seal

Pharmaceutical products are mostly high-value, temperature sensitive, and strictly regulated. Yet, many pharma brands still rely on packaging that lacks critical visibility when tampering occurs.

Without proper packaging security, companies face:

  • Unauthorized access to sensitive medications in transit

  • Damaged or altered shipments without clear evidence

  • Compliance failures during GxP or MHRA audits

  • Patient safety concerns and brand damage

  • Recalls, returns, or stock losses due to suspected packaging breach

“Over 30% of tampering incidents in the pharmaceutical sector go undetected due to insufficient packaging evidence.”

That’s why TamperTech focuses not just on sealing packages, but on making interference visible, unavoidable, and trackable.

Common pharmaceutical packaging risks we help solve

  1. Invisible Tampering – Standard packaging often allows resealing without a trace. Our labels leave irreversible signs.

  2. Lack of Cold Chain Compatibility – Many materials degrade or lose adhesion in refrigerated conditions. Ours don’t.

  3. Inconsistent Security Standards – Multi-site operations often apply packaging unevenly, leaving gaps.

  4. Compliance Gaps – TamperTech’s products are developed in line with global regulatory frameworks.

  5. Sustainability Pressure – We offer eco-conscious alternatives that balance ESG with packaging performance.

Tamper-Evident Tapes & Labels

Our core products are engineered to show visible, irreversible signs of tampering. If someone attempts to open a sealed carton, our tape leaves a “VOID” or custom message that can’t be reversed.

Proven results in pharmaceutical supply chains

Case Study: Global Pharma Brand – Reducing Losses by 28%

Challenge: Silent product losses were occurring between distribution hubs, with no visible sign of tampering or packaging compromise. These untraceable breaches led to compliance issues and internal investigations.

Solution: TamperTech implemented custom tamper evident tape across their regional distribution centers in Europe and North America. The tape was tested for compatibility with cold chain environments and aligned with GxP audit standards.

Outcome:

  • Product losses reduced by 28% in 6 months

  • Regional audit passed with zero packaging observations

  • Internal team created new SOPs based on TamperTech’s checklist
